JONATHAN KUMINGA NEWS

Scores 18 in rare start Kuminga registered 18 points (6-20 FG, 4-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 128-83 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact The Warriors rested most of their starters in the second half of a back-to-back set, so this led several reserves to see more playing time in a game in which the team suffered a blowout loss. Kuminga was one of the players who took advantage of the opportunity, just like he did in his previous start back on Nov. 4, when he also posted 18 points.

Set to play Friday Kuminga (illness) said that he is feeling much better and looks forward to playing in Friday's game against the Knicks, C.J. Holmes of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Kuminga missed Wednesday's game against the Suns due to a non-COVID illness. Kuminga is averaging 5.2 points and 1.8 rebounds in 14.1 minutes across 11 games in 2022-23.

Questionable for Friday Kuminga (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kuminga sat out for Wednesday's loss to the Suns due to a non-COVID illness, and it's unclear if he'll take the floor Friday against New York. If Kuminga remains sidelined, Anthony Lamb and JaMychal Green should continue to see increased usage in the Warriors' frontcourt.

Downgraded to out Kuminga (illness) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Suns.

Impact With Kuminga out, Jamychal Green, Moses Moody and Anthony Lamb are candidates for extended frontcourt minutes. Kuminga's next opportunity to play will be in Friday's matchup with the Knicks.

Questionable Wednesday Kuminga is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against Phoenix due to an illness.

Impact Kuminga's status for Wednesday's matchup is at risk after coming down with an illness. The forward will likely be a game-time call, and news confirming his status against the Suns should surface around tipoff.

Puts up 15 points from bench Kuminga closed with 15 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 25 minutes during Monday's 132-95 victory over San Antonio.

Impact Coach Steve Kerr mentioned Kuminga as one of several players who will see an increased role moving forward, and Monday represented the first instance of that, with Kuminga logging a season-high 25 minutes off the bench. He recorded 18 points in 38 minutes as a starter when most of the team took the night off 10 days ago, and these two games are the only contests in which the 2021 first-round pick scored in double digits.

In line for larger role Kuminga is expected to have a bigger role in Golden State's rotation going forward, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kuminga averaged 10.8 minutes in his first six contests of the 2022-23 season, but he logged 38 minutes in his team's last game Friday against the Pelicans and is expected to be more involved in his team's upcoming matchups, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Draymond Green and Kevon Looney could lose a few minutes of playing time with Kuminga set to see more action, though Kuminga will continue to come off the bench.

Lobs in season-high 18 points Kuminga closed Friday's 114-105 loss to the Pelicans with 18 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 38 minutes.

Impact Kuminga took full advantage of a favorable situation Friday, putting up season-high numbers across multiple categories. The Warriors opted to give most of their starting unit the night off, allowing Kuminga to step into a much larger role. Given he had failed to score more than four points in any game this season prior to Friday, he can safely be ignored in all moderately shallow formats.

Third-year option picked up The Warriors exercised Kuminga's $6.01 million team option for the 2023-24 season Monday, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kuminga has had inconsistent playing time for Golden State early in the year, as he's averaged 2.7 points and 1.8 rebounds in 10.8 minutes per game over six appearances. However, he'll still have his third-year option picked up by the team ahead of Monday's deadline.

However, he'll return to the bench for Friday's preseason finale and should continue to play a depth role once the regular season begins next week.
